<dc:title>Hierapolis-Pamukkale</dc:title>
<dc:subject>Immovable Culture Heritage</dc:subject>
<dc:description>Hierapolis-Pamukkale, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Turkey, blends natural and historical splendour. The location has a rich history and is known for its beautiful travertine terraces from hot springs and well-preserved Greco-Roman city remains.

Founded as a thermal spa in the 2nd century BC, Hierapolis became an influential cultural and healing center. Today, visitors explore ancient landmarks like the theater, Temple of Apollo, Roman baths, and a vast necropolis.

Pamukkale, or Cotton Castle, showcases stunning white travertine terraces with turquoise pools, drawing visitors for millennia.

Climate change threatens Hierapolis-Pamukkale, with temperature and precipitation shifts potentially degrading both ruins and travertine formations. Protection efforts include climate monitoring, sustainable tourism, and conservation measures. Engaging with Hierapolis-Pamukkale's heritage via digital exhibits and interactive experiences raises awareness about  protective action.</dc:description>
